Amour Valentine Swap

I joined the Amour Valentine Swap. My partner was Julie. She made the most beautiful box and packaged it so nice! Below is pictures of all the wonderful things she sent! Thank you Julie.

American Homemaker Valentine Swap

Yes, another wonderful swap! lol I love the prettiness of Valentines Day. This is what I received from Mary in Angie's American Homemake Valentine Swap. She sent me so many terrific Annie goodies. It was perfect. Thank you Mary! I love the picture.

Are You Kidding???

This is what is going on here. I know everyone else is getting snow also, but we get snow every couple of years! Crazy! My kids are complaining about it. That is bad. Usually they get so excited. I hate cold weather. Of course, my daughter has to work! Uggh, I just want to get under the covers! Going to start on some things. I already started my doll for a spring doll swap. Waiting for her shoes to dry. Then I need to make some bunnies! I got all my patterns organized in binders. They were everywhere. I have been trying to get organized. Now I am going to dream of Spring!

Vintage Heart Swap

This is the second year that I joined Dolly's Vintage Valentine swap. It is one of the best. My partner was Michele. She sent so many wonderful vintage items. Below is what she sent. I love everything!

Prim It Up!

I joined many Valentine swaps this year. I couldn't resist. lol Below is what I received from Anne. I love it!

Below is what I made Anne. I used a pattern from Chestnut Junction.

Oh No More Snow! Vintage Valentine Swap

I can't believe it is snowing again! The previous snow just melted. Yesterday it rained all day. I am so sick of the nasty weather. We hardly ever get snow. I can't wait until Spring!

Below is the doll I received from Courtney for the Vintage Valentine swap. She is so whimsical and cute!

Below is the doll I made Courtney. I love how she turned out. It was the first time I had done such a detailed face. I am going to make me one as soon as I get time. I used a pattern from Back Porch Pickins.

It really snowed!

We actually got some real snow. It hasn't really snowed here since 2002. Last year, they closed schools because of a big snowstorm that never came. The kids stayed home on a sunny day. lol So this time, I ignored the weather and they were actually right. I woke up this morning to lots of snow and it is still snowing. Of course Blockbuster is open, so I had to take my daughter to work. I slid through a couple of stoplights but it wasn't too bad. They haven't cleared the roads at all. Blockbuster is next door to Food Lion and they were packed! Blockbuster is closing at 6, so hopefully it won't be too bad picking her up. I don't want to be on a dark, icy road. Today I am going to work on my quilt block. I joined a block of the month at the quilt shop. I need to finish January's block so I get February's next week. Then I am going to get busy making some Annies to put on my site and for the fall shows. I am going to be prepared this year.
